How could one not cry?
Hearing such pure controlled words from a father that lost 2 children so close together, makes us realize how far this dor has become. We are so used to not thinking about tachlis ha’olam, tachlis hachaim and tachlis kol yachid. I’m definitely awake now.
HASHEM IS AWESOME

This man is a powerhouse.
I didn’t know Yisroel or Elisheva, but I sat watching the levaya in Eretz Yisroel yesterday for close to 2 hours. The Hespedim were heart-wrenching and mesmerizing. The emunah and bitachon that the family has is truly inspiring and life changing.
R’ Carlbach spoke about how it is a tragedy for the entire Klal Yisroel. Countless friends of mine told me that they cried nonstop for hours and even days after hearing about this tragedy.
Just like there was a world before 9/11/2001 and a world after 9/11/2001, so too there was a world before this tragedy and a world after this tragedy. The world is now a different place, where a Chosson and Kallah 10 days after they are engaged can have something like this occur. HaKadosh Baruch Hu sent us a direct message. I think that everyone took something out of it.
Yisroel’s brother spoke in Eretz Yisroel describing the dinner that the Chosson and Kallah had that night in his house, all the way until the tight hug before he set out back home. And how Yisroel’s sister said, if he would have left a moment earlier or later, or missed one light , or drove faster or slower, then they wouldn’t have been in that place and that time, but that is what HaKadosh Boruch Hu had wanted to happen. R’ Shaya kept on saying how we don’t have to understand even though it’s so hard.
Oh how it is so hard.
Friends, Family and all of Klal Yisroel were touched. R’ Shaya spoke about crying for HaKadosh Baruch Hu for how He feels. This is very hard for me and I hope that Families and all of the Friends and all of Klal Yisroel have a Nechama. HaKadosh Baruch Hu should answer all of our tefilos and bakashos and should Bring the Geulah quickly and speedily in our days.
